About Us
CrossFit NFT was started by a group of CrossFitters in Tallahassee who have been looking for, not only a place to exercise and train in CrossFit methods, but also an atmosphere of encouragement, support, and fun similar to what drew them into the CrossFit community in the first place. We have the most certified CrossFit trainers of any gym in town, and we are dedicated to personalized training and helping our clients reach their fitness goals.
Our fitness program is, by design, broad, general and inclusive for any level of fitness. Workouts are designed to be challenging for elite athletes, but are scalable and modifiable for athletes at all levels. CrossFit combines elements of Gymnastics, Olympic Weightlifting, and Metabolic/Cardiovascular Conditioning and is defined as “Constantly varied functional movements, executed at high intensity.”
By making sure we do not specialize our training, we are able to improve conditioning in all 10 general physical skills:
1. Cardiovascular/respiratory endurance – The ability of body systems to gather, process, and deliver oxygen.
2. Stamina – The ability of body systems to process, deliver, store, and utilize energy.
3. Strength – The ability of a muscular unit, or combination of muscular units, to apply force.
4. Flexibility – the ability to maximize the range of motion at a given joint.
5. Power – The ability of a muscular unit, or combination of muscular units, to apply maximum force in minimum time.
6. Speed – The ability to minimize the time cycle of a repeated movement.
7. Coordination – The ability to combine several distinct movement patterns into a singular distinct movement.
8. Agility – The ability to minimize transition time from one movement pattern to another.
9. Balance – The ability to control the placement of the bodies center of gravity in relation to its support base.
10. Accuracy – The ability to control movement in a given direction or at a given intensity
All that being said, we do recognize that some athletes prefer to specialize their training in order to meet specific goals, such as endurance training for triathlons, or strength training/olympic lifting. We welcome all athletes interested in all modalities. If you are interested in training in crossfit methods that can help with your specific sport, talk to us about our personal training options. We can effectively put together a training program designed to meet your needs. But, no matter what, when you come to CrossFit NFT you will work hard!
We are currently training in Railroad Square Art Park. We welcome all to come and see how we can help you achieve your fitness goals!
